Trinder primed for Hobart assault

It could be a good lead that Latrobe trainer Adam Trinder is heading to Hobart on Friday with what looks to be three strong winning chances.

Adam Trinder doesn't often make the trek south, but the seven-hour return trip may well be worthwhile.

Trinder will start the day with his handy stayer Golden Prophet tackling a small field in the opening race, a BM76 (2000m).

A winner of five of his 18 starts, Golden Prophet was doing his best work at the finish when sixth of 10 over 1600m in Launceston two weeks ago in his first run back from a spell.

"Golden Prophet will run well but doesn't have race day tactics, so he's a hard watch in the run," Trinder said.

Apprentice Chris Pang will ride Golden Prophet and reduce his weight by 2kg. Golden Prophet goes well on the Hobart track and has won second-up.

Trinder's best chance looks to be Magnaprime in the 1400m class 3. Magnaprime had a flashing light alongside his name, finishing second in a fast race on his return to racing in Launceston on 21 November.

Magnaprime rushed home to finish second, narrowly beaten over 1200m after being well back on the home turn.

"I was really happy with Magnaprime's first-up run, big weight, 1200m and with the dynamic of the race, he was forced to come back an extra pair. I think if you change the running line, if he's in front of the eventual winner, he wins.

"He steps out to 1400m. He comes back down to 59kg, and we have a good opinion of him."

Magnaprime is a lightly raced 4yo who will be having just his 10th race start. He has three wins to his credit and has raced twice in Hobart for a win and a second.

Trinder will round out his day with Prince Of Khatun in the 1100m class 1.

Prince Of Khatun broke his maiden status four starts back in Devonport and has been runner-up at his three subsequent races. He has drawn barrier one and will be ridden by Erica Byrne Burke.

It's a twilight meeting with the first of eight races at 14:28 and the last at 18:40. All the action can be seen on Tasracing Live with Colin McNiff hosting the coverage.
